Your favorite poem...written by YOU

 

You fill me till I can take no more and with loving care.
Hungrily I've drawn this in and all you have prepared.
But my love we must part ways for I now must surely go.
At journeys end alone I'll be please do not follow.
Deep within I feel an urge I surrender to my need.
And grows with every step I take and builds with running speed.
Throw open wide a prison cell my sentence almost late.
Sealed from an outside world and exposed to know my fate.
Doomed to loose what once was mine a foul and bitter dish.
Depart from me is my silent prayer where silence is my wish.
At times like these exist a pain a hell we all conceal.
Still other moments not as harsh this we hope to feel.
In private rule atop our throne we forcefully command.
Cold chrome and porcelain fill our gaze in this tiled land.
In sweet relief I wipe away the dew upon my brow.
And wipe away a passing trace is what concerns me now.
A flushing sense fills the room down all matter goes.
Fears frost takes its icy grip as trouble overflows.
Then mercy shines upon my spirit where once did fear abound.
Swirls the last of my past in a tempest galling sound.
All around still haunting me lingers a passing wind.
A wicked specter dares to flee from the convenience of my prison.
Dreadfully how I search wide-eyed and as panic stricken.
Disguise discovered freedoms hope in scented perfumed thickened.
I depart washed clean at last I’m free of a most unholy place.
My emptiness hid well behind a smile that's drawn across my face.

The empty chair
no figure slouched
synthetic voice
from frozen mouth
a muscle moving in the cheek
the intellect that was so deep
the black hole of his disability
universes child now spirit free

 ب الحكيم‎ن

A philosophy of one unconquerable God's right hand
Etho ark of this covenant guided within Ethiopia land
Dynastic Menelik's new synagogue amidst column in
Son of Makeda, the Queen of Sheba & King Solomon,

In aged Israel thru every dwelling from YHWH wisdom
Begat heir of each temple priest to mother's kingdom
Aaron's rod cast upon the waves to halt the death rite
Blessed acacia chest carried via staves by their Levites,

A mercy seat in between the two cherubim angel born
Seven priests sounding seven trumpets of rams' horns
Holiest of Holies blessed by sacred oil & the sacred fire
Ephod breastplate over red, green, yellow, blue desire,

Maccabean landing to fulfill tablets of testimonies last
By a cohen modal haplotype blood of Levi priest caste
One spirit in the body temple, the holy spirit poured in
On placing twelve stones taken from their river Jordan.

Wings
dip delicate frame
spun through
winters blue and quiet landscape

patterns of snowflake
left to glass
kiss my cheek
as a rose flush full in color

crystalline secret
whispers
by buttery spirit
thaw my eyes
from hidden warmth
while calling out as cuer
the design, the dance

no eyes more beautiful
rests this tortured soul
twirl encircled
clasp with reverie
azure chambers
loft to vermillion
breath
i no longer hold

swift she leads
frost on toe
pointy-eared
alive
amidst glacial erratic
transported form
kept
to a world of magic

The circle and stone
grip
time exists within her
stolen
mere moments
those
once before

no other world spins
glitter
nor diamond
ambit sphere  

i in captive
held with no restraint

Sweet words, a kiss.    
Sly eyes so full of lies.  
Playing a game of hit and miss.    
He starts with just a kiss.    
He says he loves you and adores you.    
You believe and don't resist.    
So his game was not a miss.    
You heart keeps saying  
Runaway, Do not stay,  
You go with the flow    
Hoping he would take it slow.    
When night turns to day.    
The romance fades away    
And you know you can't stay.    
You go home with dismay.    
You have to say goodbye to that day.    
It all started with a kiss

Scroungers of society    
That’s what we are  
It’s an inclusive club    
They offer the same opportunities  
As long as they don’t need to support you    
    
So join join join    
All are welcome    
   
It’s a con to get you into the slave market    
Be productive be proactive    
But don’t let the disability hinder    
They will cut you off at the knees    
If it means saving money and making profit  
   
So join join join  
All are welcome    
   
Come on it’s fun    
Forget anxiety  forget depression  
Get out there be sociable  
Just don’t get weird or lose control    
Then you can’t be in the gang  
   
So join join join  
All are welcome    
   
Jump through the hoops    
It don’t matter that your disability is permanent    
Any nuance of change is enough  
We will punish your ass    
For trying to be a member of society    
   
So join join join  
All are welcome    
   
For to be included    
You have to show willing    
In being willing your disability isn’t a problem    
You don’t deserve help    
Get a job you scrounger    
   
So join join join    
All are welcome    
Unless you are a burden
